Can I have a Web page Dashlet with dynamic content?

Question

I can easily add an Action button in Record View to open a page whose URL is composed of a base and an ID stored on the current record. 
 Something like: 
 concat(" ">mywebsite.com/info , $field_name) 
 Is there an easy way to use that field definition/formula to just include that page as a Web Dashlet in the intelligence pane as well? 
 It looks like the Web Page dashlet is static only and cannot reference the current record. 
 
 Thanks, 
 Francesca

Hi Francesca Shiekh , 
 The standard Web Page Dashlet in Sugar displays a static web page, so there&rsquo;s no built-in way to have it dynamically render a site with values from the current record. 
 
 I was thinking about this recently, and while my idea is a bit&hellip; unconventional, it works without any custom code. If you don&rsquo;t mind a slightly &ldquo;weird&rdquo; workaround, here&rsquo;s what I tried:

Create an IFrame field in your module, and have it render based on dynamic content. For example, I used it to perform a Bing search using the Case Subject.

In Studio , edit the Record View Dashlet layout for your target module so that it only displays the IFrame field you just created.

On the Record View , add a Record View Dashlet for that module.

The result? You get a dashlet that dynamically loads Web content based on the current record&mdash;without writing a single line of code. 
 
 You might struggle with the window size and so on, so please give it a try and see if it works for your use case! 
 
 Cheers,

Hi Francesca Shiekh , 
 
 Maybe you can use this BuildingBlocks : https://github.com/sugarcrm-developers/BuildingBlocks/tree/master/packages/ContextualIFrameDashlet 
 That way, you can still use the record view dashlet for this module and have this dedicated Dashlet for your contextual webpage integration
